一、考查形容词和副词的基本用法
      形容词在句中一般作定语、表语、补语，而副词在句中主要作状语。如：
       (1)Tom sounds very much  ______in the job, but I’m not sure whether he
      can manage it. (2006安徽)
      A. interested    B. interesting   C. interestingly   D. interestedly
      解析：句中sounds意为“听起来”，是系动词，后接表语，要用形容词，排除C和D；又因表示“对……感兴趣”，用interested。答案是A。
      (2)We don't care if a hunting dog smells ______, but we really don't want
      him to smell______. (1995上海)
      A. well; well  B. bad; badly  C. well; badly  D. badly; bad
      解析：句意是：“我们不在乎猎狗闻
      起来难闻，但是我们确实不希望它的嗅觉力差。”前者smell是系动词，后接形容词，后者smell是行为动词，用副词来修饰；此外well作形容词是表示人身体好、气色好，用在此句中不行，只能作副词用。答案是B

      (3)These oranges taste _______. (1991全国)
       A. good        B. well         C. to be good   D. to be well
      解析：因taste(尝起来)是系动词，后要接形容词作表语，故选A。
      (4)—What a nice fire you have in your fireplace!
       —During the winter I like my house ______.(2005上海春)
      A. warmly and comfortably   B. warm and comfortable
      C. warm and comfortably   D. warmly and comfortable
      解析：在宾语后补语要用形容词。答案是B。
      (5)She doesn't speak ________her friend, but her written work is
      excellent. (1993全国)
      A. as well as     B. so often as  C. so much as    D. as good as
      解析：由语境可知，前一分句的意思是：“她不如她朋友说得好。”修饰动词speak，用副词well。答案是A。
      (6)He drives much ________than he did three years ago. (1981全国)
      A. careful     B. carefully    C. more careful  D. more carefully
      解析：由than可知要用比较级，排除A和B；修饰动词drives要用副词作状语，排除C。答案是D。
      (7)______, some famous scientists have the qualities of being both careful
      and careless. (2004上海春)
      A. Strangely enough B. Enough strangely C. Strange enough D. Enough
strange
      解析：由语境可知，选项是修饰整个句子的状语，应用副词，排除选项C和D；又因enough修饰副词要放在所修饰的副词后，排除B。答案是A。
      二、考查形容词作定语的后置规律
       形容词作定语一般位于所修饰的名词前，但下列三种情况形容词要后置：①形容词短语作定语时；②表语形容词作定语时；③修饰复合不定代词时。如：
      (8)_______to take this adventure course will certainly learn a lot of
      useful skills. (2000全国)
      A. Brave enough students    B. Enough brave students
      C. Students brave enough    D. Students enough brave
      解析：由enough要放在所修饰的形容词brave之后，排除选项B和D；brave
      enough与后面的不定式构成形容词短语作定语，要放在所修饰的名词students之后，排除A。答案是C。
      (9) All the people ______at the party were his supporters. (2002北京)
       A. present      B. thankful      C. interested     D. important
      解析：因为要在名词后作定语，选项中只有present(出席的，在场的)这个表语形容词作定语才可以放在所修饰的名词后，故选A。
      三、考查多个形容词作定语的排序
      多个形容词修饰名词时，其排序规律是：(限定词+程度副词+)
      描绘+大小(长短、高低)+形状+年龄(新旧)+颜色+国籍或产地+物质材料+类别或用途+名词。如：
       (10) John Smith, a successful businessman, has a ______car. (2004辽宁)
       A. large German white    B. large white German
       C. white large German    D. German large white
       解析：large是“大小”，German是“产地”，white是“颜色”；其排列顺序应当是“大小+颜色+产地”。故选B。
       (11)______ students are required to take part in the boat race. (2004浙江)
      A. Ten strong young Chinese      B. Ten Chinese strong young
      C. Chinese ten young strong       D. Young strong ten Chinese
      解析：根据“限定词+形容词+名词”，数词属于限定词，选出A和B来；再根据“描绘(strong)+大小(young)+国籍(Chinese)”，所以选A。
      (12)The _____house smells as if it hasn’t been lived in for years.
(2004江苏)
      A. little white wooden         B. little wooden white
      C. white wooden little         D. wooden white little
      解析：因为little是限定词，应放在形容词前面，排除C和D；表示颜色的应放在表示物质材料的形容词的前面，所以只有A对。
      答案：A
      (13)This _____girl is Linda’s cousin. (2005北京)
      A. pretty little Spanish    B. Spanish little pretty 
      C. Spanish pretty little    D. little pretty Spanish
      解析：pretty是描绘性形容词，little是表示大小的形容词，Spanish是表示国籍的形容词，所以，它们的排序是pretty little
      Spanish。答案是A。
      注：限定词的排序：前位限定词 (指量限定词all, both, half等；倍数词double, twice等；分数词one-third,
      two-fifths等) +中位限定词 (冠词，指示代词，形容词性物主代词，名词所有格)+后位限定词 (序数词及last,
      next等；基数词及few, several等)。如：
       (14) The husband gave his wife ______every month in order to please her.
      (2004重庆)
       A. all half his income    B. his half all income
       C. half his all income    D. all his half income
      解析：all和half都是前位限定词，his是中位限定词，所以his要位于all和half之后，故选A。
      (15)－How was your recent visit to Qingdao?
      －It was great. We visited some friends, and spent the ______days at the
      seaside. (1995全国)
      A. few last sunny B. last few sunny C. last sunny few D. few sunny last
      解析：sunny与day的关系最密切，要紧靠day，或者根据last和few是限定词，要放在描绘性形容词sunny的前面，排除选项C和D；凭语感或由学过的in
      the last few years可知，last要放在few前，排除选项A。答案是B。
      四、考查副词在句中的位置规律
      副词修饰形容词或其它副词时，一般位于被修饰词的前面，但enough却要放在被修饰的形容词或副词的后面。如：
       (16)Although she did not know Boston well, she made her way ______ to the
      Home Cirele Building. (2006湖南)
      A. easy enough     B. enough easy      C. easily enough        D. enough
      easily
      解析：因make one’s way
      to是固定词组，意为“前往”，修饰动词made要用副词，排除选项A和B；副词enough修饰形容词或副词，要放在后面，排除D。答案是C。
      (17) If I had ______, I'd visit Europe, stopping at the small interesting
      places. (1998全国)
       A. a long enough holiday         B. an enough long holiday   
        C. a holiday enough long         D. a long holiday enough
      解析：形容词long要放所修饰的名词holiday前；副词enough要放在所修饰的long之后，故选A。
      此外，①频度副词always, usually, often,
      never等一般放在行为动词前，或者情态动词、助动词或be动词之后。②表示方式的副词通常放在“动词(+宾语)”之后；③同时有表示时间、地点和方式的副词时，其顺序一般为：方式＋地点＋时间。如：
       (18) ______I went to the railway station to see my friend off. (1991全国)
       A. After eating quickly my dinner   B. After my quickly eating dinner
       C. After eating my dinner quickly   D. After eating my quickly dinner
      解析：quickly是表方式的副词，通常位于“动词(+宾语)”之后，故选C。
      (19)They’re not very good, but we like______. (2000上海)
      A. anyway to play basketball     B. to play basketball with them any way
      C. to play with them basketball anyway D. with them to play basketball
      解析：like后应直接接宾语to play basketball，状语放在宾语后。答案是B。
      (20)－Will you give this message to Mr Baker, please?
      －Sorry, I can't. He ________. (1992全国)
      A. doesn't any more work here  B. doesn't any longer here work
      C. doesn't work any more here  D. doesn't work here any longer
      解析：doesn’t后应紧跟动词原形work，排除选项A和B；地点状语要放在时间状语前面，排除选项C。答案是D。
      五、考查–ed形容词和-ing形容词的区别
      -ed形容词，通常说明人，意为“(某人)感到……”；-ing形容词通常说明事物，意为“(某事物)令人……”或“令人……的(事物)”。如：
       (21) Laws that punish parents for their little children’s actions against
      the laws get parents _____. (2004重庆)
       A. worried  B. to worried  C. worrying  D. worry
       解析：表示人(parents)“感到忧虑的”用-ed形容词作宾补，故选A。
      (22)It is believed that if a book is ______, it will surely ______ the
      reader. (2003上海)
      A. interested; interest      B. interesting; be interested
      C. interested; be interesting     D. interesting; interest
      解析：前者是作表语，表示“(令人)有趣的”，用interesting，后者是在will后作谓语，用动词原形，表示“使(人)有趣”是interest。答案是D。
      (23)Mr. Smith, ______ of the ________ speech, started to read a novel.
      (2003京春)
      A. tired; boring　 B. tiring; bored  C. tired; bored  D. tiring; boring

      delicious.

      A. pleasant; pleased  B. pleased; pleased C. pleasant; pleasant  D.
      pleased; pleasant
      解析：表示“感到高兴”用pleased；表示“令人愉快的”用pleasant。答案是D。
      六、考查两种不同形式的副词的用法差异
      即考查与形容词同形的副词与形容词后加ly构成的副词的区别。如：
       (25) It was raining heavily. Little Mary felt cold, so she stood ______to
      her mother. (2002北京)
       A. close        B. closely       C. closed        D. closing
      解析：因紧靠母亲站着，是指实际距离近，用与形容词同形的副词close，故选A。选项C的closely一般指抽象意义，如listen
      closely(仔细听)。
      七、考查形容词和副词的比较等级
      1. as+形容词/副词原级+as
      (26)A typhoon swept across tiffs area with heavy rains and winds _____
      strong as 113 miles per hour. (2006上海)

        (28)John plays football________, if not better than, David. (1994全国)
      A. as well      B. as well as   C. so well      D. so well as
      解析：句意是：“John踢足球不比David更好，也会和他一样好。”从结构上看，去掉插入语if not better than，就更清楚地知道用as
      well as，肯定句中不用so…as。答案是B。
      2. not as/so+原级+as
      (29) He speaks English well indeed, but of course not ______a native
      speaker. (2004上海)
       A. as fluent as  B. more fluent than C. so fluently as D. much fluently

      —No, we don't─at least, not ________yours. (1982全国)
      A. bigger as     B. as big as  C. as big than    D. as bigger than
      解析：由语境可知，是要表达“至少没有你们的图书馆那么大”，表示“不如”是“not as+原级+as”。答案是B。
      3. as +形容词+(a/an+)名词+as

      There were many ticket left. (2004福建)
      A. much smaller B. much more  C. much larger  D. many more

      (37)I have worked with him for some time and have found that he is ______
      than John. (2004上海春)
      A. more efficiently a worker   B. a more efficient worker
